Autopsy AFL 2024 Second Semi Final - Port v Hawks Fri Sept 13th 7:40pm EST/7:10pm CST (AO) Teams in OP

[Opium]

Whoever doesn't think the game is rigged needs to watch that second qtr.

Absolute disgrace

 

[Scritchyscroony]

The worst bit about the bad umpiring is that the Port players can no loner play with any confidence, while the Hawks can play with impunity.

People will say: well sure Port got some bad calls, but Hawthorn was also playing better. But Hawthorn has been playing better precisely because of the terrible calls. They were playing like crap into the umpires piped up for them.

Umpire assisted momentum shifts are a feature of modern footy.

Enjoy 10 years at the bottom with Tassie coming in

Pot black

 

[Monco Matt]

Super impressed with Port under the circumstances, they are earning everything they get while the Hawks look shell-shocked and timid and are relying on charity inside 50 to keep them in it. Umps should be heavily fined and suspended for their biased performance so far.

Absolutely farcial umpiring tonight
THE umpires are ruining the spectacle.

Umpire. Only one of them calling all the howlers

 

[Hawks1523]

How can a club be as hateable as Hawthorn?

Geelong, easily.

 

[Goat Hird]

Umps win that quarter, nicely set up for hawks now to make a run in the 3rd.

 

[HairyO]

3 of Hawthorns goals were gifts from the umps

2. 1 of yours was.

And Port still leading the count.

 

[Reign Man]

Rubbish was literally an article in the newspaper about how good he is at spraying campaigners.

you still read the paper? lol

 

[Purple7x08_24]

3 free kicks. 3 goals. What a ****ing joke

 

[Altum Volantes]

The drug cheat right on the siren.

Sammy Mitchell to hit him up with injection signal soon?

Bill Clinton over here - did you not inhale mate?

 

[SS3840]

Rioli kicks a fluke.. that boot, bever happened to

Super impressed with Port under the circumstaces, they are earning everything they get while the Hawks look shell-shocked and timid and are relying on charity inside 50 to keep them in it. Umps should be heavily fined and suspended for their biased performance so far.

I know one of them umpired his last final.

 

[supahoops]

Jeez Hawthorn just have no room at the moment to take more than 2 steps, every side in the league (including the one that belted them by 13 goals last week) would be struggling against this.

Ginnivan seems to have room to jump at his own shadow.

 

[PowerBaz]

Softest free kicks to keep the VFL in it. Stop pretending it’s a national league. **** off.

 

[Palpatine_Power]

VFL wants their umpires back

 

[fnerd]

Massive, take away the 2 bullshit goals and we would be in massive control and momentum

Nah m8 you were absolutely kissed on the dick in the first 1.5 quarters .
Umps just umpiring it fairly now

FAT WILLIE

Better than a fat stocker right!

 

[kaiserchief13]

quoting myself here, I was pretty close. Hawks by 24 points

Umpires scoring another 7 goals for Hawthorn this game?

 

[The Mares Leg]

While a couple of the slams were probably there - there is no doubt Mitchell’s instruction is to exaggerate any ‘incidental’ head/turf contact.

No suprise, Mitchell has always been a grub.

Absolute disgrace

did feel a bit like that.

 

[fnerd]

VFL wants their umpires back

Cry some more

 

[Reign Man]

I’ve seen enough. Port by 130. Hawks completely shitting the bed.

aged badly

 

[Plugger35]

BT "We've got a ripping semi final".

Engineered by the umpires, the Hawks would be at least 4 goals down if it wasn't for the umpires stepping in to help them out.

 

[Reign Man]

Hawks are really shit without umpire assistance. Port should be much further ahead.

You are not self aware
